Phoronix: GCC 2010 Summit Presentations Now Online

For those interested in compilers, particularly GCC, or are interested in some technical slides to look over this weekend, the presentations from the 2010 GNU Compiler Collection Summit are now available online...

I wonder if GCC will have any future with the seemingly superior LLVM lurking around the corner?

@Michael when are you gonna make a new GCC vs LLVM benchmark series? Since i really would like to know the current state because LLVM 2.8 is supposedly (a lot?) faster then 2.7 thus probably catching up or even beating GCC..

Ehh, where did you hear this? From my benchmarks and what I've read in the release notes there was precious little work on optimization in llvm 2.8

Please point to the source of this? From my tests llvm 2.8 is still slower than gcc 4.5 (code performance, not compiling) so have I missed some new optimization flag or what?
